Sirius here is a beautiful (stating the obvious) pedigree Berger Blanc Suisse, three years old. We are looking for someone who has experience of the breed and the time and energy to give . Sirius is hyper sensitive and very active needing to use up energy both physical and mental. He has a good basic education, “sit”, “down”,”wait” however walking on the lead needs a bit of ‘attention’ ! He has no problems with the dogs and cats whose home he shares at the moment but would definitely benefit from being the only dog of the household, needing time to interact with other dogs. Having had problems with some other dogs, he is wary and scared when meeting new friends and this can manifest in him being initially grumpy. Sirius is looking for a new home because his owners situation has changed and they no longer have the necessary free time to devote to him. For more information and photos, please get in touch with me. Currently in Montpellier, his owners are prepared to travel to find him the right home.

UDGY AND ULLY
Udgy and Ully are two eight month Welsh Corgi mixes rescued from Roumania. They are very shy and a couple of visits to La Mere aux Betes in Castelnau Montratier would be essential to make friends with either of these two girls. Onec they are used to you they will show their love. A home without children is recommended. Heaven knows what they have been through before arriving here. The girls can be adopted separately and would probably benefit from that. Adoption fee applies.
Please note that Danielle will not normally take dogs rescued from abroad, this was totally a one off.
TELLIS
Tellis is an 18 month old Springer Spaniel with bags of energy -have you ever met a Springer without ?! – she is loving, gets on very well with other dogs and has a good nose, which could be turned towards truffle hunting ! If you are looking for a good family dog and you have a fenced in garden, look no further. Adoption fee applies.
HARLEY CHARLEY
Cutest hand reared kitten, turned into magnificent impressive cat. Sadly, Harley Charley does not like his brothers and sisters and is making their lives a misery. HC would like to be King of his world, so if you are looking for a cat to keep others out of your garden, and/or a mouser barn cat, then Harley is for you.
TAKAR
Fabulous Takar is an 11 month Shepherd/Dalmation (I kid you not !) mix. He is a lovely boy, ok with other dogs, cats, children and is just in need of a little more education. Takar has lived inside and outside and would need a home preferably with a closed in garden and where he would not be left alone. A great dog for a family who are willing to help him in his aim to be the best ! Chipped vaccinated and neutered, adoption fee applies.
ROUXY
Meet Rouxy, a beeyootiful, handsome ginger male, chipped and vaccinated with a carnet de santé. Rouxy and his brother were adopted as kittens three years ago and got on very well until, possible as a result of other males cars moving into the neighbourhood, they have decided that “this house ‘aint big enough for the both of us’ !!! Rouxy can be a house cat but is just as happy outside hunting. If you can give this gorgeous creature a home, please get in touch with me. 0565245303 / susanglibbery@gmail.com.
REX
Update 29/01/24 Dear Rex is still waiting ! We think he may be a little bit deaf, following an untreated ear infection. So a fenced in property is a must and an extra understanding caring owner.
My favourite type of dog, Rex is a very handsome and gentle dog of about three and a half. A pedigree, he has proved to be not so good at hunting (hurrah for Rex !) and will make a great companion dog once he has had a bit more education. Adoption fee applies.
HUSKY
Update 29/01/24 Still waiting after several long months this gorgeous dog has had some offers but, sadly, none suitable where he will go to a colder area of France. Not for the heat of the South this boy.
Adorable six month Husky already weighing in at 20 k ! Fine with children, no problems with cats BUT needs to be where chickens are NOT.
ADOPTION ANNOUNCEMENT
Please note that Poorpaws, being full of unhomed dogs, has joined forces with La Mere aux Betes, a private refuge run by Danielle Diczy and situated in Castelnau Montratier, Lot. Danielle’s experience with, and knowledge of, all kinds of animals, their care and education, is phenominal. Danielle has closed her website page, transferred to doing everything on facebook and all dogs wanting to come into Poorpaws will go to La Mere aux Betes. I will continue to post the dogs on the Poorpaws adoption page, but you may like also to get all the latest news from Danielle’s Facebook page.
JUST A THOUGHT……….
LAST WILL
My friend Rowan who is the President of the SPA at Carcassonne, received this ‘letter’ from a lovely lady who had recently lost a much loved dog who had been rescued from the refuge. Many people say to me when their dog dies, that they could never have another as they cannot stand the pain when the dog goes. Read this Last Will from a dying dog and once you have put the tissues away, open your heart and home to a rescue dog.
